Question Tea Exchange?

The panty thing was so fun...just getting cool mail from all over the country, and even across the seas. I was thinking......many of us have a new or renewed love for warm beverages. Gwen from the UK wanted to share her fav brew with me and sent me a box from far far away (thanks again Gwen). It made me wonder if anyone would enjoy mailing tea bags here and there. It should be cheap and fun. I don't know about concerns with sanitation and such, but would think we would have to mail only the ones in individual wrappers.....or an entire box if we really wanted to share that much with a friend. What do you guys think?

I think it's a great idea! I'm going to look, I think there is an RI company that has a special, local brew...
And the timing is terrific! It got down to 54 last night...

Sounds good to me, but I am trying desparately to reorder my fav tea from the Bahamas....and so far, no luck. I have a few of the banana rum left though. I think I just figured out that they have a slight bit of alcohol to them. No wonder I LOVE them.

Sounds like a lot of fun and I was a tea drinker before surgery. It certainly hasn't gotten better since.
